Yes indeed - no such reporting in Cambodia!

I hope the borders to Cambodia will get open soon. I want to join my friends there, at the beach, in the restaurant, in the SARS-ĆoV-2 and panic free old normal, enjoying life without masks and curfews, but with friends and a good wine at dinner.

In the US, the worst affected states had their liberal governors sending sick people into nursing homes which resulted in many deaths. Those same marxists 

Calling any US politician a marxist is an insult to Karl Marx.

There is every reason to exclude the US from any plans to let people in. Its a hotbed of disease. Same as the UK. It has 'declined' to 2000 cases a day.

Not to forget China, the breeding ground for all these viruses.

then i don't understand why you brought up the first amendment, as it is not applicable.  

Just go back to see to what I responded to, when I brought it up, the post from johnnybangkok:

So by your logic Al Qaeda, the PLO, Boko Haram, all other terrorist organisations, pedophiles, necrophiliacs, bestialty and all other offensive content should be allowed or is censorship not right just when it suits you and your views?

Replying to that question about censoring and illegal content I replied with mentioning the first amendment covering free speech and laws covering illegal activities.

In extension to that, dominant monopolies such as Twitter, FakeBook and Google/Youtube should in my humble opionion not be allowed to censor. They are not operating in a private niche anymore.

And before you start again that they would not be censoring but fact checking, please note that I simply hope that out of this discussion comes something which stops them censoring. Or do you really think censoring is good? I don‘t.

Good to let the people come home.

the author of that fake prediction, did not want to release his parameters

And as said here earlier, a funny coincidence, his institute received a >70 million grant from our well known vaccine prophets just at the time he released the scary numbers generated by his flawed model.
Honi soit qui mal y pense.

So by that equation how is Brazil doing? No lockdowns, 26,417 new cases of the virus and 1,156 new deaths raising the total to 438,238 cases and 26,754 deaths. I guess they must be following your posts and decided that because just one country was currently successful then thats all the evidence needed.

I‘m flattered that you think they might follow my posts here. ????

Please keep in mind that Brazil is a huge country, and a country with a lot of problems.

Brazil is the fifth most-populous country on Earth and accounts for one-third of Latin America’s population.

Thus, if you look at the absolute numbers, high numbers are to be expected. 
There is too much poverty there already, huge favelas, masses of people for whom a lockdown would be not only ineffective to stop infections, but deadly. Obviously very difficult to protect the elderly there.
 

Nevertheless the curves will also there go up, reach a peak, and go down again, whatever they do, and whatever I say.

fact-checking is not censorship, as it neither prohibits nor suppresses speech. 

Please don’t put words in my mouth which I haven’t said. 
I have not said that Twitter censored him. 
However I have said that I hope he stops social media from censoring, with the example of Google / Youtube censoring words the CCP does not like.
Do you think it is ok that they do that?

He has not been censored. His 'facts' have been flagged as 'unsubstantiated'. He is still free to post whatever nonsense he usually does, but now Twitter is saying the equivalent of 'we don't think this is true and this is why'.

Big difference to censorship.

Yes, but many others get censored. Google is even censoring critical views of the CCP. If his experience of getting flagged gets him to stop that censoring, that would be so great!

Again, ignored is that the population density in Sweden‘s cities, such as Stockholm, is very comparable to other European cities, such as London.

Japan drink green tea like people drink water

 

full of anti oxidants

 

Japan people eat a lot of fish ... omega 3 & vitamin D

 

the green tea theory is also, why after 2 atomic bombs, dropped by the friendly good USA (war crimes as it was on civilian population), not so many died of irradiation...

Actually, this has a scientific background:

From a Japan school study:

„Our findings thus suggest that the consumption of 1–5 cups/d of green tea may prevent influenza infection in children.“

Abstract

Green tea is known to contain antiviral components that prevent influenza infection. A limited number of adult clinical studies have been undertaken, but there is a paucity of clinical evidence concerning children. We conducted an observational study to determine the association between green tea consumption and the incidence of influenza infection among schoolchildren. Anonymous questionnaire surveys were undertaken twice during the influenza season from November 2008 to February 2009 (endemic seasonal type A influenza infection); each survey was conducted for 2663 pupils across all elementary schools in Kikugawa City (a tea plantation area), Japan. Each questionnaire was completed and submitted by 2050 pupils (response rate, 77.0%; age range, 6–13 y). The adjusted OR associated with the consumption of green tea for ≥6 d/wk compared with < 3 d/wk was 0.60 [(95% CI = 0.39–0.92); P = 0.02] in cases of influenza confirmed by the antigen test. Meanwhile, the adjusted OR inversely associated with the consumption of 1 cup/d to < 3 cups/d (1 cup = 200 mL) and 3–5 cups/d compared with <1 cup/d were 0.62 [(95% CI = 0.41–0.95); P = 0.03] and 0.54 [(95% CI = 0.30–0.94); P = 0.03], respectively. However, there was no significant association with the consumption of >5 cups/d. Our findings thus suggest that the consumption of 1–5 cups/d of green tea may prevent influenza infection in children.

Actually, if he does stop the censoring and enforces free speech, that would be really good. 

Currently everybody thinks they are entitled to censoring, but who decides what is the truth?

Mr Suckerman and friends are not really qualified for that, and also not a ministry of truth, be it a private company or a government institution.

Instead of censoring, come out with facts and convincing arguments, and the people will follow.

But if you censor, people will get suspicious and ask what you are trying to hide.

So please go ahead, and enforce free speech, ban censoring!!!

There's a concept called quarantine. The test subjects are vaccinated, placed in quarantine, and exposed to the virus either artificially or in contact with infected persons. Success is measured by the infection rate and severity of symptoms in the test subjects.

I daresay New York is running out of options in terms of quarantine or a controlled experiment.

Sorry, I do not see why an almost virus free Australia is the better place to infect the vaccinated test subjects. If they are to be infected, then it doesn’t really matter that there are infected persons somewhere outside.

Also of course Novavax has enough labs in the US to run a controlled test, enough money, enough Universities. 
 

So why test on Australians?

They have the arrivals by air well-contained, and it's evident that the problem now is infections arriving from outside Thailand, so I wonder just how well the land borders are secured? I've no doubt the official border crossings are guarded, but there's not many of those for over 3,000 miles of border.

Especially watch the borders to Cambodia, zero cases there for over a month, I'm sure they sneak in from there and bring the virus ????

Having the flu you know your sick. Nearly half of COVID sufferers do not know they are sick and show no symptoms, thats why this virus is unique, hence masks

This is not true for more and more of the population, for example all the ones which already went through the infection. Why should they wear a mask?
